Reacting to the by-poll results of Assembly constituencies that were declared on Tuesday, senior Congress leader P Chidambaram said that the "honours are even" and asked, "Which way will the wind blow in 2022?" referring to the Assembly polls in seven states next year.
Taking to Twitter, he said, "Here is a thought-provoking analysis of the results of by-elections in 30 assembly constituencies. BJP won 7 seats and its declared allies won 8 seats. Congress won 8 seats," he said.
"Non-BJP parties won 7 seats of which only 1 seat was won by a crypto ally of the BJP, namely YSR Congress. The other 6 seats were won by parties opposed to the BJP," he further said.
